MotoGP on street circuits is a crap proposition. The riders are not trained in that type of riding.
Although, pretty sure there’s a massive Dunlop fan & MotoGP rider who’d ride the TT if he was allowed to. 😁

I’m somewhere between 80-90kg. Im not overweight, I’m underheight. 🙂
I’m not mega powerful either, peak sprint is 900 & something for 5 secs. Endurance is decent though, can plod away at over 200W for a longish time.
Give 100% a go, you’ll get used to it quickly.

It kinda happened when I got the Kickr climb, you set the system to 100% to get the full range.
There is a workaround but couldn’t be bothered with that.
Also means when on Rouvy I do the lighthouse & Sa Calobra & it feels real. 🙂

I use 100% trainer difficulty. Switched a couple of years ago, tough to start with but you get used to it quickly.
I don’t do races only training so no disadvantage.
I take a cereal bar if the rides longer than 1.5 hrs, 2 if it’s a 2 hour ride & always have a litre of water which usually goes.

Yes, absolutely no need for it.
Im guessing because the 303s wheels went on sale at a lower price point with a life time warranty proprietary bearings was a conscious long term profit claw back by Zipp.
The inside chamfer is slight but it’s enough to make anything else operate poorly.
